Half great, half good (3.5 stars)

(3 out of 5 stars)

"The first few songs make this album worth the price of admission. Taken from the Red Sun EP, they are all powerful tracks from a band in its prime, including intense covers of "Some Velvet Morning" and "Town Without Pity". The other stuff is a mish mash and probably only interesting to hard core fans. If you're a completist, though, the inclusion of "Ants Are Cavemen" and "Burn the Flames" will save you the trouble of hunting down the Sub Pop 7" single and the Roky Erickson tribute album respectively."
